Question Weird Colors??

I just got a new computer and I get these weird colors whenever I minimize or maximize or get out of a game. The colors don't appear across the whole screen but sometimes parts of the start bar or desktop, so I'll have to move some windows around to make it go away. I don't know what the problem is, but I thought it might be Windows XP itself or the video card. Please help!

Hi Nicole,

I thought I had posted to this a couple of days ago, but apparantly it didn't get saved

Have you overclocked your video card at all?
